If you fancy going head to head against someone and shooting the crap out of them (Hmm, I could think of a few people) but you don’t want the old problems of ‘police’ and ‘law’ to get in your way, have a look at this video.
They even ensure anonymity so if things get out of hand there’s no chance of ‘real world’ retaliation.
Heh, I just got stopped by the police for going ‘a bit quick’ as I went into a power slide around a roundabout in Manchester. Luckily he was a dog handler and didn’t really have any of the equipment required to gage speed. It didn’t help either that my power slide was right outside the police station with this guy behind me.
According the Home Secretary, Jacqui Smith, the government is looking at changing the law with regards to deactivated weapons in the UK. This could affect me personally as I have a pretend M-16 Assault rifle model which was used for a film we made some year’s ago.
“I want to balance protecting the public with the rights of responsible collectors of deactivated firearms,” she said.
High-profile murders such as the shooting of 11-year-old Rhys Jones as he walked home from football practice in Liverpool last August have raised public concerns about of gun crime.
To be honest though, I’m relatively sure that Rhys Jones wasn’t shot with a deactivated gun, he was shot with one that works. This brings me back to my post about the Americans and their banning of Megatron toys.
When will common sense prevail and actual REAL guns be pin-pointed as the problem in shootings?
I’ve just noticed my site has dropped another rank according to Google, I’m now a PR3. I was a 4 this morning, and a 5 before Christmas. Guess that’s what you get for selling links and blog posts.
You caught me Google, yer cheeky monkey!
I won’t change my ways though, and my Google traffic has increased if anything. This just shows hows inaccurate Page Rank is as a medium for measuring a website’s worth. Traffic is the true yard stick, so my yard is nicely formatted thank you.
I’ve seen some ugly dogs in my time, living in Cwmbran at least, but this one takes the biscuit. Fear maybe an emotion the Jedi try to suppress, but I’d imagine Obi-Wan would have been quaking in his cloak when faced with this symbol of the Dark Side.
Sam is officially the World’s ugliest dog. No arguments from me on that one.
I recently raged about coding an old ASP website I’d built a while back and how it was it a pain in the ass. I mentioned how now that I’ve discovered PHP my life is no longer filled with unfathomable error messages from Microsoft and gaping wide security holes. ’tis all true.
However even in PHP you need a little help once in a while, which is why this code tips website, talkincode.com, seemingly run by HAL is a great site to add to your bookmarks.
Featuring advice and code samples for PHP, JavaScript and MySQL this site has answers to questions you’d otherwise spend hours looking for. Sadly there isn’t much in the way of ASP advice on there, but probably the best ASP advice is “don’t”.
